Irina Shayk: Artsy Assets

Image Credit: EA Games.
Irina Shayk and her likeness (above, which will appear in the upcoming video game Need for Speed: The Run) have been all sorts of bizzay with an abundance of projects lately, and now they both can add ‘book muse’ to their repertoires (sort of).
Shayk is supposedly not only the cover model of Raphael Mazzucco’s coffee table meme, but also a main feature of “Culo by Mazzucco.” Celebrating women’s bottoms (probably not the most average of kinds, of course), many well known names have lent their assets to the project, including Pamela Anderson, Fergie and former C-Ron fling, Paris Hilton.
After watching the teaser video, our HQ is split on whether or not we’d allow Shayk’s nude bottom to grace our coffee tables. Would you, Kickettes?

I hadn't checked this site in awhile, and then I read these comments and remembered why.
Can someone please explain to me why so many fights are erupting over this girl? Really, Kickettes? I know we're all entitled to our own opinions, but some people (on both pro-Irina and con-Irina) are being downright rude. Nobody here actually knows this girl, so I don't see why half are playing up the martyr St Irina and the other is acting like she's the she-devil. This is probably what she wants, anyways: tons of people over the world talking about her – whether what they say is good or bad. And personally, I don't think any of us should be working as her free PR.
It's not jealousy, it's the truth. She's a beautiful woman but sometimes her face looks manly. She looks 30 when she's really 25, and yes, when she smiles her lips touch her nose! In the fashion world, she's not that much of a standout beauty. But because she's dating Cristiano – she gets more fame, and books more jobs (especially in Spain).
I liked Irina before she started dating Ronaldo and I still like her now – but even I can admit all of her new found fame comes from dating Cristiano. For example, everyone talks about the SI Cover but she's been in the magazine since 2007 and only after her relationship with Cris did she score the cover! Before it was Brooklyn Decker – who's married Andy Roddick. And before that – Bar Refaeli – who was dating Leo DiCaprio at the time. SI used to choose their covers based on who had the most beautiful shot but now they just pick which girl has the most connections.
I followed her career very closely and before she was dating Cristiano – she would only book swimwear campaigns. SI was her biggest job. After the fame of dating him, she books jobs all over the world! If she really was such an impeccable beauty – Victoria's Secret would've hired her. They still don't use her.
I don't understand why Victoria's Secret hasn't hired Irina or bar Rafaeli yet! In my opinion these two are more beautiful than certain VS models like Karolina Kurkova or Miranda Kerr. Don't get me wrong, these models are pretty, but Irina (and many other models) have more exotic beauties.
I love Irina! and I would like you people to stop comparing her with all of those catwalk model who are sticks with clothes! She has a tremendous body, she has a good bottom.
For my part, I appreecitate the beauty of a woman with meet on her bones!
They(kickette) always post about her cuz thats the only way to really get comments on this board….Kickette YOU NEED TO STEP UP YOUR GAME!!!!!! or YOU WONT MAKE IT TO THE PLAY-OFFS!!
I'm not the only one that always says stuff. Also I haven't posted on everyone of her posts. Why don't you comment on ALL the other comments that you don't like and stop commenting on just mine. I don't comment on all the comments I like and I RARELY comment on comments I don't like sweetie. I ignore them, like I will be ignoring you.
i usually just do a single post addressing everyone when i comment on thins like this, but i commented on your post because you were the one who trashed her and then went "btw there's the photos on TMZ"…that's contradictory. besides, i'm sure i've said something along the lines of this before and you've commented defending ppl trashing her, so that's why i commented on your hypocritical post. and if you were ignoring me you would have done so from the get go. but no, you felt the need to defend yourself, which is cool, but it's kinda late for the "high road" now, sorry.
she is pretty but she contradicts herself! i remember her saying a few months back(after unsuccesfully trying to sue GQ for "airbrushing her underwear off") that posing naked defames her and its not the correct thing to do… She since supported a non-smoking/skin cancer campaign by posing naked and in between on her breaks smoked cigarettes(?!?!?!) and has done this… If its not the correct move for a model then why is she doing it? this isnt to say that she isnt pretty, because shes stunning! but most people here are ronaldo fans and know that his mother almost succesfully split him and irina up after the whole naked GQ saga which is irina went on to blame GQ for what she did, but sadly GQ had solid video proof to she was indeed naked. His mum speaks about hating her publicy, as does his sister… so i think all the "haters" are just going along with what his family have said to the press. shes a clever woman, a very clever woman. ronaldo makes it no secret that he doesnt like a woman who removes he clothes for money as i recall him saying, hey are "high class strippers"… Hmm!
Interesting, as he chose to date a lingerie model. By definition, they seem to remove clothes for money. Seems that if contradiction is anything to go by, the two are made for one another.
PS- hello other April!
are you some kind of perfect human being who never contradict herself?
I love Irina. I can't wait until she & Cris get marry.
theyre not getting married. cris' sister confirmed that yesterday. His sister also confirmed that his mother has a huge dislike for Irina since the GQ scandal.
no, Katia didn't said that dolores dislike irina, she only denied the rumours.
Honestly don't have a clue why Irina haters comment on a post about Irina…anyway, she's absolutely beautiful and yes, I very probably would put her naked backside on my coffee table!
you go girl! that book is for us to appreciate curves!
Messi lucked out with Antoniella, she is very pretty, with a nice body and a career that doesn't involve using his name for Work….and her lips don't touch her nose when she smiles…
Cris has a girl whose agent and PR Team know how to use him while appearing to be discreet and Iam sure she is happy with this relationship..come in to Madrid twice a mth for sex and PR, and she doesn't have to play the Stepmother role, wonder if he will leave his son again this X-Mas to be with her on an Island. Of Course she doesn't talk about him knowing that would end her PR Parade..
Also why does, she attend SO many moive premieres yet she has nothing to do with the moive…you don't see Top Model Like Gisele or Kate Moss doing that…OH they don't need too, they have a Top Notch Career..
LOL..If you think Iam jealous of MISS JokerSmile…then think what you must to feel good, but honestly their are plenty of beautiful, non shallow, caring, honest Models with Careers based on something other then a Famous Guys PR….
Irina is not one of them…
YES…THIS IS NOT HATIN IS THE TRUTH..
what does Antonella Rocuzzo have to do with this? your comparison is ridiculous!
Irina attends those fim premieres….because she's invited to them!
Well, she works for her body (gym/diet) so why not cash in while she can. The whole GQ thing i guess she didn't agree to pose nude but they did removed her close on their own (which is violating) but given she is always half naked not a big deal. In my opinion her bum is better than her face!
Actually, GQ released video of her removing her own clothes…This time her PR scheme backfired. I guess she feels dating CR makes her bigger than GQ…hahahaha
Personally, I don't understand why she would make it into this book…she doesn't have an ass.
wait a darn minute,,is this the same girl who screamed..aaaaah gq magazine fotoshop my pics..i swear i was wearing panties..NO..NO..it cant be her..just saw her on tmz.com all naked a$$ out..i dont care if she wants 2 be a naked model..but just be f@#$%ing ok with it..stop all the lying and pretending..she has the looks off a model she can do this on her own..run way modeling like the others..(kate moss,naomi cambel,tyra ect..but no short cut via cr7 2 stardom and succes..well i hope she make it before cr7 gets bored,,mama dolores will be most pleast 2 help..
Girl is stunning! Of couse she's half naked all of the time cause she's a freaking swimsuit/lengerie model. I tried not to like her at first, but I like the way she does not talk about her relationship with CR or his family. She spends time with him when she can and she actually works for a living. I think she's better than the Abbey Clancys and the Danielle Lloyds of the WAGs. She's been with CR for some time now so there must be something good about her. CR is no saint so I don't know why some people think he should be with Mother Teresa!
I agree with you.
Sigh…I wish I had a body like that!
I am indifferenate when it comes to Irina, but I agree with your comment, exactly how I think!..
i wish i could give this a million thumbs up.
I totally agree! she is beautiful and much classier that other wags!
She is a beautiful woman but I don't really like her botom to be honest, mine's better (A)
Here we go again with the we hate Irena comment post, if you dislike her stop commenting about her, stop giving a flying fig about her and what she does with her life. You have to really care about someone to waste your time commenting on her!
This isn't an Irinia Fan board, it's a comment site, All sorts of people get negative comments here, cause different people have different opinions, but she should be the exception, because you like HER! Seriously Stop…
I agree with you…
are you from the Kickette administration?
Cammie, where did i write that i like Irina? do tell. You Stop, Seriously!
good lord, the girl is a lingerie, bikini, etc model and whatever else in that area of work!
i don't hear trashing Adriana Lima, Candice, Rosie Huntington & co for doing their jobs?
why does it bother people so much that she poses nude? it's HER body (and it's spectacular)
so why the hate? oh yeah! forgot she was dating one of the richest
and most famous footballers in the world right now.
i guess that somehow make her less than human *rolls eyes*
classic women "slut-shaming" other women. how sad.
idk, make because she sued GQ because she was nude there and after months before these "scandal" she posed nude again. She contradicted herself doing this.
then people need to say that! instead of going around "omg she's so trashy and dirty" etc!
because they say the exact same sh1t when the chick is fully clothed.
how about they get off her dick? cause she surely doesn't give a damn about your opinion
so what's hating on her doing for these people?
Thing is that she is most of the time without clothes, making scandals and seacking atention for example last week show with pal Jessica.
She can't advertise shoes or jeans without being naked or half naked. She is definity getting full use of CR7 wave of fame. She had jobs and contracts before but she didn't have fame. Adriana Lima, Candice, Rosie Huntington which you mentioned didn't had so high profile romatic relationship and made there way with years of castings, editorials, campaign etc.
For a change she should try button up and look desent.
A fucking men! Cannot stand the amount of slut shaming that goes on in posts like these.
thank you! that's all i'm saying! i don't really care for Irina. i don't find her particularly attractive, funny, witty or what have you, but i don't exactly like how some women like to sit on their high horses and throw out words like like "whore" this and slut "that" when talking about women they've never even SEEN in real life. how exactly do you know she's that way? how judgemental are you that you judge someone by the clothes (or lack thereof) they wear? Cristiano is happy with this woman. he's been with her for a lot longer than most of his flings, who knows–maybe he loves her! i think that bothers a lot of people. does it bother me that Irina is full of herself? not really–what's it to me? of course she sounds like an idiot (though most of what she says is taken WAY too seriously but sites trying to get a few hits in their comment boxes…ahem). gossip is gossip, and at the end of the day what Sylvie can der Vaart wore or who Wayne Rooney cheated with are not going to change my life, so why waste time spreading negativity? especially towards other women…that's all i'm wondering really. it's immature and makes them look insecure with themselves.
The reason I'm "slut slamming" her because she only a few months back made a huge spectacle about GQ photoshopping off her panties. She said she'd never pose nude but yet again here she is naked as the day she was born. It's not about her doing her job. Underwear and lingerie are one thing but don't get naked and then play all innocent high and mighty. She's a PR hound and tries to do anything to get her name mentioned. Get a campaign and pose for it but the tipping paps off to where she'll be and appearing with CR7 at the right times is what makes her cheap and trashy. And as for the human thing…I think what makes her less human is all the botox and collagen in her face. I think she exceeded the amount a real human can have!
i commented above saying i don't care if you're calling her out for her bullshit, but what does her being a shameless whore have anything to do with that. she's a hypocrite (and not a smart one) okay, but how does that make her a whore? i saw a post on here comparing Irina to Antonella Rocuzzo. Antonella, who recently got a boob job and goes to the beach in thong bikinis with her whole marvellous ass exposed on a regular basis. lol really? by this person's logic, Antonella would be a filthy shameless whore as well right? but no, Messi "lucked out" lol please. i'm wondering why that's okay and yet any time this woman does anything even slightly provocative, all hell breaks loose and the "w" word is so quick to come into play. that's all.
Who called her a whore? I'm calling her a liar and a user. She lies about taking off her clothes, and uses her boyfriend to get jobs. Most of her work is in Spain and that is 100% due to her dating CR7. She's not wanted in US fashion world. Not asked to participate in fashion week shows by designers, can't get a major campaign like makeup or clothing. Her SI cover was a flop, it got her nothing after except a few tv interviews that all wanted to know about her boyfriend which she pulled her stupid I'm russian kgb spy crap. She wasn't being discrete, she was trying not to take attention from herself and put it on CR because that is why she got the cover in the first place. She is a leech, she latches on takes what she can. For someone who talks about women attacking women I'd think you'd want to support a better role model not a weakling that has to use a man to go somewhere in life.
you mean like most wags? this is a footy gossip site so in order to do that i'd have to criticise about every single woman posted on here. and read the comments, tell me that the majority of them of the top ones aren't about her being trashy etc, and then you've earned yourself and imaginary cookie!
I agree! all those Victoria's Secrets model appear mostly nude all the time, and they don't say anything…
Kickette can you guys stop posting about her! She is not getting any love here!
They post about her cuz thats the only way to really get comments on this board….Kickette YOU NEED TO STEP UP YOUR GAME!!!!!! or YOU WONT MAKE IT TO THE PLAY-OFFS!!
she's getting envy and jealousy! from girls who can't stand sb else's beauty!
So uhh, when can we expect the Culo- Male Edition? Because I nominate Fernando Torres to be the cover model!
Higuain!!!
A Culo-Male Edition…brilliant!
I Vote Sergio Ramos In!
I vote for a Real Madrid edition, too many hot players to pick from, so I pick all..
Ladies, ladies… we act as though there are limits to the pages in this book. Dream to your heart's content, because as many lovely bums as you can think of can be featured in this up and coming book. Maybe its a hardcover too, and they can print several varieties of a cover to put over the top. I mean, Nando's my number one booty of choice, but there is clearly a marketing benefit in catering to a few markets, here.
Go on Irina… put your butt all over someone's coffee table, but it won't be mine, because I am reserving mine for an ass that *I* would like to tap
I wish Sergio, Cris and some other footballers would show US their bottoms…!
CR for the cover…or Pipita!
What about Miss "I Never Pose Nude"? What about the GQ Spain drama? She made that stink about them for nothing, just to get fame, and then she poses nude for this trashy book. FAMEWHORE!!!!
I hope when they break up that Kickette will stop posting about her.
TMZ has the exculsive photo of her nude so you can go to their website and see it.
oh-so-critical, and yet you still took the time to discover that tidbit of info? adding more fuel to the fire eh? why so obsessed Lizzy?
I didn't look for it. I watched TMZ and it was on their. I don't go looking for info on her. I was saying TMZ has the actual picture because Kickette didn't post it. Nice try.
oh please, if Kickette didn't post it, why'd you feel the need the advertise that?
so you and your minions would have something else to feast on and hate her for?
you always have something negative to say when it comes to Cristiano and/or Irina,
and yet you always seem to be in the know about them, so save your excuses hun.
nice try? back at'cha.
I can post my opinion on here if I want. I usually "know" about her from Kickette. I watch TMZ because I always watch TMZ. I did it before she started dating CR and I'll do it after.
Minions? I don't know anyone personally on here. Really?
I have had nice things to say about CR in the past but I'm not going to kiss his ass if I think he does something I think is wrong. It has not always been negative when it comes to CR.
If you don't like my comments then don't repy hun. Save your stupid excuses for attacking me.
I hope she poses naked again. She has a body that deserves to be shown, maybe that's what really bothers you…
That "culo"-book is just sexist. It's for those old farts who are afraid to leave their porn-mags out on the sofa
. At least that's what it sounds like, without having looked through the thing.
She is shameful.
She is all the time half naked (like Dirty girls premiere) or completely naked.
It is to much now – GQ, baptisam dress, premiere dresses, baskettball top, Glamour model dress and a list goes on and on. The only time she is decent dressed is at RM games.
I bet in RM are not exactly over the moon that there star player name and consequently RM name are drawn/ atached to this stuff.
Sorry but this chic is complete trash! Can she get a job w/clothes? She's a C-list model and the only reason she's that high is because she is dating CR7. Here in US she's a nobody who appears on red carpets and the captions are girlfriend of cristiano ronaldo. I'm not a CR7 fan so i'm not a jealous fan girl, i'm sick of seeing this girl capitalize on her boyfriend's fame. She's got so much colagen in her lips that there is no separation between her mouth and nose. I wish CR would move on to his next conquest and end this girl's 15 min. of fame. She's gross!
Envy is the most stupid of vices, for there is no single advantage to be gained from it. ~Honore de Balzac
wise words….
I agree. No one talks about her in the US. Her PR team sets up the paps and then sends the pics to Just Jared/Perez Hilton. TMZ hasn't talked about her in A LONG TIME until this pic. On TV, TMZ barley talked about it and moved on really quick because no one cares. I also hate girls that get fame off their BF/Husbands and act like they did it all by themselves. Not a good role model.
oh…envy… she is very beautiful. and she is named a lot on E!News
I just looked on E! online and the last article they mention Irina was Wed, May 25, 2011.
you search for info about what I said? how sad…
Trash!?! Dang, why the hate?
Irina has been very low-key and very discreet about her relationship. The same cannot be said about the majority of other girlfriends.
Shakira has acted a fool all over the world, for months. Sara the "sports journalist" has caused numerous problems for Iker's team and is now suddenly a "fashion model". Bleakley is still name-dropping Frank to make herself relevant. And countless soap actresses, pop-stars & glamour models have blabbed to the tabloids as soon as any footballer has looked their way.
Compared to what other footballers are dating & dealing with, CRon totally lucked out with Irina.
ARE YOU SERIOUS???!!!!!!!!! She calls the paps every time they go out and only comes and watches a game whenever there is some photoshoot in SPAIN!!!!! So always some gain involved for her!!!!! She's anything BUT discreet.
I totally agree! Shakira is showing off her boyfriend to make everyone believe that crap it's true.
Irina was on many shows like Letterman and Chelsey Lately and she didn't even named her boyfriend!
Please, every single interviewer brought up Ronaldo and she would just smile coyly and giggle. She didn't have to name him…
yeah, but she didn't show off with cR with ridiculous PDA as Shakira and Piqué always do!
Why do guys concern about who these footballers date, as long as they are happy who cares how they benefit from their fame or not…
I dont like sara at all for example, I dont like her with iker, but as long she is making my iker happy, I will not attack her because I honestly still think footballers are not dumb, they know exactly what their gfs or wifes do..
Mmmmm I perceive a lot of envy!!!!
she's beautiful and I don't think she is famous because of CR! They name her a lot in E!News and TMZ because of her good looks and I don't think cr is that popular on the US.
what can i say? her hot body and beautiful face are sth not many girls can appreciate without bashing…
You're obviously entitled to your opinion, though I do question why a person would feel the need to be so catty and nasty about a woman who is enjoying huge career success, without being the typical drug addled, sex tape releasing, 5 times divorcee fame whore. I'm not in love with Irina or anything but I have enough perspective to understand the prestige that comes with a Sports Illustrated cover and really, good on her for achieving that! From what I've seen in interviews, (Youtube her Letterman interview, for instance), she's pleasant and has a great sense of humour. The USA is full of z-list 'celebs' with absolutely no credentials to fame, and in MY opinion, Irinia is a gorgeous european woman who has made something of herself from extremely humble beginnings. So she takes her clothes off for photos… big deal, prudes! What's wrong with a beautiful body being showcased by brill photographers?
The fact is that she lied that she was photoshopped by the GQ Magazine when she did pose nude. Why did' nt she admit then I did pose nude like Marlyn Monroe said 'yes I did pose nude for penny'
Yawn… My hearty congratulations to all the loooovely ladies who spend their time and energy on that whole saga. Worthwhile cause.
why do you all care about that as if she was some kind of terrorist to feminism…
I'm not being nasty, I'm being honest. I'm not annoyed by her taking off her clothes but a few months back she did it for GQ and then tried to drum up publicity for herself by saying they photoshopped her panties off. If you are going to pose nude do it, but don't lie and act all innocent afterward. They had a video of the photoshoot to prove she was nude. Her pr team is scheming always to get her name out there tipping off paps where she will be. Most of her pics are of her dressed terribly, with unwashed greasy hair. She was snapped with hairy legs and two consec days wearing the same dress/skirt. And as for her making something of herself…most work comes because of who she is dating. Back someone that doesn't use a man and truly becomes someone on her own merit!
Fair enough, personally I would assess the combination of 'trashy', 'a nobody' and 'gross' as at least a little bit nasty, but everybody's different, I suppose. Unwashed and unshaven? Sorry but LOL. Punishable by death, I assume? I should probably stop there, starting to feel a bit of a hypocrite :-/ Love ya Kickettes!
The thing is that this picture could be older ones from GQ. I have seen some photos fromSI shoot back in 2009 and she was in bikini on same bed. If this is true then she is a big time liar.
she is beautiful, I love her. Any who differs is probably jealous. ( maybe not all but most are jealous of her. ) Haters gonna hate.
she is pretty but she contradicts herself! i remember her saying a few months back(after unsuccesfully trying to sue GQ for "airbrushing her underwear off") that posing naked defames her and its not the correct thing to do… She since supported a non-smoking/skin cancer campaign by posing naked and in between on her breaks smoked cigarettes(?!?!?!) and has done this… If its not the correct move for a model then why is she doing it? this isnt to say that she isnt pretty, because shes stunning! but most people here are ronaldo fans and know that his mother almost succesfully split him and irina up after the whole naked GQ saga which is irina went on to blame GQ for what she did, but sadly GQ had solid video proof to she was indeed naked.

I'm sorry to burst your bubble but the bootylicious 'culo' gracing the cover of such an elegant book obviously belongs to an african american gal, Lea Muses. Never heard? well, me neither……but she was at the launch.
Why the thumb down?!! I was just trying to help….!
Soz. I swear it was my evil twin (Hot4Arsenal) giving you the thumbs down! LOL! That bitch is evil!
really? Hot4Arsenal is your twin? or is it just a joke?
Black or white, can't we all just be bootylicious together? If you are not bootylicious, buy the panties with butt pads in them and join us! LOL! #drunk
Well, 1st it's obvious it is an amazing black girl's round butt on the cover and 2nd who said you have to be black or white or whatever in order to be bootylicious? I for sure didn't! Bigger LOL #sober [for now;)]
her face and body on Need For Speed is the coolest thing ever!
ok, i love Irina, you all know that, she's beautiful and has a perfect body.
But…THIS IS AWKWARD even for me!
I'm sorry Iri, I'm not with you on this….
All right Shaykey! Get it girl!!!
But seriously, Paris Hilton was in it once? I thought he was only interested in round bottoms. Paris's backside looks like it could be the front of her! Yes, that was mean. I make no apologies to those who will thumb me down (nose in the air, arms crossed).
yes, you're right on that. it called my attention too
